Fans of Movin' 107.5 stopped their groove at 1 PM Tuesday, as CBS Radio announced it reformatted the station to be a Spanish language Hot Adult Contemporary station.

In fact, CBS Radio is claimed the new MEGA 107.5 will be the "first and only Spanish language Hot Adult Contemporary station." Though we're admittedly not Spanish language radio listeners, we have no idea why this format would be that different from CASA 106.7

CBS Radio saw a market opportunity, though, claiming 24% of DFW's population is Hispanic.
